Product Code: MF-TDES-17

Deferring upgrades to transmission and distribution (T&D) infrastructure has emerged as one of the principal benefits of stationary energy storage technology. This trend is evidenced by the growing number of new projects being developed around the world. Energy storage for T&D upgrade deferral, also known as T&D asset optimization, deals with ensuring that electricity transmission lines, substations, and other equipment have enough bandwidth to handle peak demand and maximize reliability. Energy storage systems (ESSs) deployed to serve this application are often installed as an alternative to investing in new infrastructure such as feeder lines and substations.

Building new T&D infrastructure has been the default solution to many issues facing the electricity grid for decades. These upgrades are needed to address load growth and rising peak demand, congestion on the network, and reliability issues. However, there are many challenges to upgrading grid infrastructure, particularly large-scale transmission projects. These challenges include concerns from local communities, the time required to develop and build projects, uncertainty around future load growth and demand patterns, and the rising costs to build new infrastructure in urban and remote areas. The falling costs of energy storage technology are making it an increasingly economical alternative to conventional T&D projects. According to Navigant Research, global installed energy storage power capacity for T&D deferral is expected to grow from 331.7 MW in 2017 to 14,324.8 MW in 2026.

This Navigant Research report examines the global trends and market dynamics for ESSs providing T&D deferral and asset optimization. The study includes an analysis of the advantages of energy storage over alternatives, along with the major drivers and barriers. Global market forecasts for capacity and revenue, broken out by market segment (transmission asset optimization, distribution asset optimization, and behind-the-meter storage) and region, extend through 2026. The report also examines the costs and benefits related to energy storage for T&D deferral, as well as notable case studies.
